And what better way to mark it than to make your own?
That's just what the Early Show anchors did, with the help of a true donut maven: Stan Frankenthaler, the executive chef of Dunkin' Donuts.
He brought all sorts of donuts and ingredients for them to use, and everyone agreed, "It's to make
the donuts!" echoing a famous Dunkin' advertising slogan.
Asked which of his chain's varieties is his fave, Frankenthaler got a big laugh when he said, "I really tend to love them all!"
He said the simple glazed donut is Dunkin's best-seller, and the old-fashioned didn't get its name by accident: It was Dunkin's first.
Dunkin' Donuits was established in 1950 and says it now sells some selling 2.5 million donuts and donut holes every day.
Frankenthaler also unveiled the winner of a nationwide Dunkin' contest to find the best new donut recipe in the country. It drew some 130,000 entries:
